The generate_entropy function used a sha256 for compacting together 256 bits of entropy into 32 bytes hash. However, it is questionable if a sha256 can really be used here, as potential collisions may reduce the max entropy fitting into a 32 byte hash value. So this batch introduces the use of sha512 instead and the required buffer adjustments for the calling functions. Further more the working buffer for the generate_entropy function has been widened from one page to two pages. So now 1024 stckf invocations are used to gather 256 bits of entropy. This has been done to be on the save side if the jitters of stckf values isn't as good as supposed.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
